[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.
[0025] The following will further elaborate on this application Figure 1 in Figure 2 combination Figure 3 with the accompanying drawings.
[0026] This embodiment discloses a device for automatically climbing a wall and knocking to detect the hollowing of exterior wall thermal insulation, which includes three main parts: a driving device 1, a cable device 2, and an unmanned carrier detection platform 3. The driving device 1 consists of a motor 101, a guide rail 102, a first control unit 103, and a sliding mechanism 104. The cable device 2 includes a winch 201 and a cable 202. The unmanned carrier detection platform 3 includes a frame 301, a knocking module 302, a sound receiving module 303, a processor 304, an inkjet marking module 305, a storage module 306, a positioning module 307, an image acquisition module 308, an automatic obstacle avoidance module 309, and a data transmission module 310.
[0027] The cable device 2 drives the winch 201 to wind and unwind the cable 202 through the motor 101, thereby controlling the vertical movement of the unmanned carrier detection platform 3. The guide rail 102 is installed at the top and bottom of the detected wall, enabling the cable system 2 to move horizontally, and further realizing the horizontal movement of the frame 301 along the guide rail path. The first control unit 103 is responsible for comprehensively controlling the operation of the cable system 2 and the guide rail 102 to ensure that the unmanned carrier detection platform 2 can move stably along the preset path. The unmanned carrier detection platform 2 is the core part of this system. The frame 301 is made of lightweight and strong materials and is connected to the driving device 1 through the cable 202 to achieve the overall movement of the platform. The guide rails 102 are oppositely arranged at the top and bottom of the building exterior wall. The sliding mechanism 104 is slidably installed on the guide rail 102 and can be connected by bolts, screws, clamps, welding, bonding, or other mechanical connection methods to ensure that the sliding mechanism 104 can move horizontally on the building exterior wall surface. The cable 202 is fixed to the winch 201 and is connected to the frame 301 part of the unmanned carrier detection platform 2. By controlling the winch to wind and unwind the cable, the vertical movement of the unmanned carrier detection platform 2 on the building exterior wall surface is realized. Through designing the detection path, the automatic wall-climbing knocking detection of the entire building exterior wall is achieved, ensuring the comprehensive and accurate detection and marking of the hollowing of the building exterior wall thermal insulation.
[0028] The knocking module 302 is a key component in the detection process. It includes a force hammer 3021, a knocking drive mechanism 3022, and a second control unit 3023. The force hammer 3021 consists of three independently coded electromagnetic hammers. Each electromagnetic hammer realizes the knocking action through electromagnetic drive. The control unit controls the energization of the electromagnetic coil of the knocking drive mechanism to generate a magnetic field situation, driving the electromagnetic hammer to knock. The control unit is responsible for presetting the knocking program to ensure that each force hammer knocks in the set order and frequency. For example, after the No. 1 hammer knocks 3 times, the No. 2 hammer starts to knock 3 times, and the No. 3 hammer starts to knock 3 times. Or after the No. 1 hammer knocks 5 times, the No. 2 hammer starts to knock 1 time, and the No. 3 hammer knocks 5 times. The knocking time, the number of knocks, and the knocking force of the three force hammers can all be adjusted adaptively. The sound data obtained from each knocking scheme is different. Comprehensive judgment is made based on the data obtained from multiple schemes to determine whether there is a hollowing in the detection area. In addition, the number of force hammers and the knocking frequency can be adjusted according to the actual detection requirements. For example, in areas that require more precise detection, the number of force hammers can be increased or the knocking frequency can be increased to obtain more sound data.
[0029] The sound receiving module 303 includes a microphone array 3031, a signal amplifier 3032, and a filter 3033. The microphone array 3031 is arranged around the unmanned carrier detection platform 3 and can be set within a range of a set threshold from the radius of the force hammer. For example, it can be 20 cm from the radius of the force hammer. It can accurately capture the sound signal generated after knocking. These signals are then processed by the signal amplifier 3032 and the filter 3033 and transmitted to the processor 304 for in-depth analysis. The signal processing unit and the algorithm library in the processor 304 work together. By performing a fast Fourier transform on the sound signal and conducting a joint time-domain and frequency-domain analysis, the signal processing algorithm is called to obtain the detection result and determine whether there is a hollowing phenomenon in the detection area. In addition to the conventional microphone array, specific types of sound sensors can be added to capture sound signals within a specific frequency range, enabling the system to more accurately identify specific sound patterns related to the hollowing phenomenon, thereby improving the detection accuracy.
[0030] When the processor 304 detects a hollowing, the inkjet marking module 305 makes an inkjet mark at the corresponding position of the hollowing.
[0031] The storage device 306 is responsible for storing all processed data. These data can be exported through the interface for further analysis by the operator.
[0032] The positioning module 307, by integrating sensors such as a GPS module and a laser rangefinder, records the position of the carrier detection platform in real time and marks its specific position when a defect is detected.
[0033] The image acquisition module 308 collects images of the detection area in real time through a high-definition camera. These image data are combined with the sound data obtained by the knocking module 302 to provide more comprehensive detection data for the operator.
[0034] The automatic obstacle avoidance module 309 detects obstacles ahead through ultrasonic sensors, infrared sensors, lidar, etc. By processing the data of the sensors, it judges the position and distance of the obstacles, generates an obstacle avoidance path, adjusts the detection path of the unmanned transport detection platform 2, and avoids obstacles ahead to ensure no collision during the detection process. The data transmission module 310 transmits the knocking detection data and image data to the cloud server in real time through a wireless network, not only realizing remote storage of the data, but also facilitating remote data processing and data analysis.
[0035] The following is a description of the usage process of the present utility model to better illustrate the present utility model.
[0036] S1: Start the device and set the path of the detection area.
[0037] S2: The unmanned transport detection platform moves on the wall according to the preset path, and controls the up and down movement of the platform through the cable system to cover the entire detection area.
[0038] S3: At each detection point, the force hammer knocks in the set order, the sound receiving module receives the knocking sound, and transmits the signal to the processor.
[0039] S4: The processor analyzes the received sound signal to judge whether there is a hollow drum at this point. The inkjet head in the hollow drum defect area sprays ink to form an obvious mark.
[0040] S5: The positioning module records the position of the transport detection platform in real time. When the processor judges a hollow drum defect, it marks and stores the position of the hollow drum defect in the storage device.
[0041] S6: The image acquisition module collects images of the detection area in real time, combines them with the knocking data, and stores them in the storage device.
[0042] S7: The data transmission module transmits the detection data and image data to the cloud in real time to realize remote storage and analysis of the data.
[0043] S8: After the detection of this area is completed, the driving system as a whole moves along the guide rail to the next area to continue the detection.
